Iran's True Ambitions
By Micah Halpern

Saturday January 6, 2007

I've Been Thinking:

Ali Larijani, Iran's nuclear chief held a press conference in China.
It was very enlightening.

First: he confirmed that Iran has already produced 250 tons of UF-6 gas Uranium Hexaflouride which is the foundation for the uranium enrichment used in a high grade reactor. He said that the gas is stored in tunnels deep in the Isfahan nuclear experimental site.

Second: he let loose a real bomb by saying "We oppose obtaining nuclear weapons and we will peacefully use nuclear technology under the framework of the Nonproliferation Treaty, but if we are threatened, the situation may change..."

This last line confirms the worst fears of Western nations.
Regardless of what Iran has thus far --- Iran has nuclear weapons aspirations.

The Iranians do not have loose lips.
Larijani was delivering a message.
